Yes, ladies and gentleman, I am talking about none other than Dalin Oliver (he's a stand-up comedian for those of you who don’t know).

Our first encounter was at the Chilli Bar on a Thursday night. Dalin walked on stage full of confidence and entertained the crowd with is unique sense of humour. Now, about four years later, I watched Dalin perform at the Baxter Theatre in his one-man-stand-up-comedy-show: I Came, I Taught, I Left.

What an amazing experience it is to watch someone grow the way I’ve watched Dalin grow (yes, dude, I have been stalking you for quite some time). From a “hello, bye” guy to a hug and “howsit!” guy. Dalin has not let the fame get to his nose head.

The show is about Dalin’s life experiences and he is extremely descriptive in the way he explains his encounters with his friends, family, colleagues, learners and educators which makes the show quite intimate (the intimacy could be because of the venue setting).

I would recommend all educators to watch this show as a “you are not alone in the struggle” team-building. Everyone can relate to this show and have a good laugh at the same time (except home-schooled kids who won’t really understand). Dalin interacts with the crowd, so if you fancy yourself a joke(r) or just love being in the spotlight, book your tickets now!

I saw Stuart Taylor after the show and he looked at me and I looked at him thinking “I know you, I wrote about you… but you don’t even know I exist”

*note to self*

Dalin was kind enough to take me backstage for a short interview and to have a quick catch-up. I of course didn’t say five words to him – VersatileLyle did all the talking.

The Armchair Comedy Festival is happening and it gets underway from 13-20 December.

It will comprise of one week of raw club stand-up comedy, which runs every night from 8:30pm. See some of the funniest and craziest comedians make you laugh with great comedy!

I'll be there, will you come pop in and have a good laugh, it's been proven to be good for you.

When I first saw the posters for Stuart Taylor’s 2015 in Revue my immediate thought was “cant these people spell properly at least?” So anyways, I went to the 2015 in Revue show and about ten minutes into the show a light turns on and I was like “ooooh! Revue!”

The show was highly entertaining. The comedians took the audience on a journey through 2015 and touched on some serious issues in our country and the world; but somehow they could still find humour in it (guess that’s why they do what they do).

Stuart Taylor set the mood and cracked us up with his punch lines. Oscar Petersen... uhm… well he’s sort of like that drunk friend in the club you sit and watch whole night because he is so entertaining.

But MEL! Whoo! Mel kept Stuart and Oscar in their place. She was absolutely amazing!

Well done to the comedians and all the other people (you know, the ones not on stage) for an entertaining evening!


Some info about the show:
This festive season, comedian Stuart Taylor teams up with the hilariously funny Mel Jones and Oscar Petersen to bring you the hottest comedy offering this holiday!

Local audiences can expect a triple dose of laughter as this threesome tackles 2015 in the funniest way possible. A review of the year that was: from the highlights and the lowlights, to the lack of lights, to politicians who made headlines and Zuma’s counting skills, there are no sacred cows in this show.

You definitely won’t want to miss these three class acts on stage as they say goodbye (and for some, good riddance) to 2015 and bid a warm welcome to 2016.

The show is directed by Brent Palmer, with additional material written by local comedians Martin Evans and Yaaseen Barnes.

Ticket Prices range from:
R100-R200
And can be purchased online here.

For more on the show go like their Facebook Page.

Ps. I especially enjoyed Mel Jones… Mel Jones you are one funny gal!

I'm hosting a comedy night in collaboration with Ground Bar and you are all invited. (provided you buy a ticket)

This is the launch of Ground Bar's comedy nights and as things stands, it promises to be a fun filled night.


To be GROUNDED means to be confined to a specific area and to be exempt from taking part in the things you love.

So no thinking about work, no more thinking about deadlines or exams and no more sitting around getting drunk at home, as of the now - "YOU'RE GROUNDED"

As part of your grounding you need to make your way to Ground Bar for a night of comedy filled with laughs and so much more...
